^ Yes, however if she had stayed I think it might have ruined the way she was perceived even more.

no because if you watched the show properly she said she and her friends (some which are black) say that to each other all the time.....

and yes she was sorry.....if it hadn't been for the wake up call she might have been able to say it more clearly, as she was slightly in shock at the time......

give it a rest anyway.....she made a mistake, she is not a racist.

*Sigh* you tell me all that like it's a fact and you've known her for years, I did watch the show 'properly' (assuming you mean I watched it with my eyes and listened to it with my ears) and obviously the conclusion I came to is different from the conclusion you came to - live with it, everything you said is an opinion, not a fact... I think we'll have to agree to disagree...

I think she was.

Also may I point out that much worse forms of racism is going on apart from emily saying one word, there are people who say that word almost every day and even worse words

I think she was only sorry for herself - that she had ruined her chances of winning (she was very confident that she would win the whole show)

Emily knew the instant she slipped up what it meant - that she would be removed for racism.

That's a strong possibility, in my opinion she was already coming across very badly right from her video at the start - admitting she was "pretentious" and claiming to be highly intelligent in the next sentence (lol) along with claiming there was a new type of music sweeping Britain - "indie". So not the sharpest tool in the box is she?

I never really liked her too much, she was way too arrogant and snobbish, the racism just put the cherry on the top for me.
